Haha I know the feeling. Last time I had to send mine off to be repaired, I couldn't take the wait so bought another pair. Got the repaired ones back and haven't worn them once yet cause they new ones are so comfortable.

I bought the "Corbina's." Got them off ebay tortoise frame and green mirror 400 lens for $130. I sent off the "Permit's" which I thought were most comfortable Costas ever. But "Corbina's" are where its at. Got Permits for back-up now. Only thing I like more about my Permits are the huge frames but Corbina is a pretty large frame also. Corbinas are the ones Im wearing in my avatar.

My 240+ friend stepped on mine and shattered my right lense

Just close that one eye, you'd been fine

costa glass is second to none but their frames arent the best around. ive got 2 pairs of turbines and 3 pairs of fathoms at home with broken frames. i would like to see them come out with a titanium frame cause the plastic just dont last.

Bobby Buggs 09-10-2010 10:42 PM

its all I wear. I have 2 Turbines and 2 Cabalito. The 580 silver is the best one I have found

i got 2 pairs of triple tail costas.. love them.. one is a wave 400 bluemirror/grey lens had them 8 years.. nose rubber finally fell out.. gotta send em off.. and a set of 580 vermillions. those are AWESOME for sight fishing... fish stand out like a neon sign with those vermillion lenses! :cool:

on a seperate but related note,
i saw some glasses called flying fisherman at icast.. the owner of the company took a money clip from his pocket and grinded it across the glass lens.. and there was absolutly no scratching. he asked me "can i try that on your costas?" i just laughed, but he had a good point. costas scratch easily. the ff's also have better color differentaition than costa.. blue was blue.. red was red. i was very impressed. he told me that costa has been tryin to buy him out for awhile now. i can see why. i might get some ff's next time. :cool:
